Musical Mayhem

Audio recording. It's an interesting world to delve into should you have the desire but like anything technical, it can be intimidating if you don't know where to start. This series will mostly be me rambling on about tips and tricks that I've learned over the years that will help you with getting started so you can produce your own material. The focus will be heavily geared towards music because that's how I got into this shitstorm in the first place however most of what I discuss can be used for any type of audio recording adventure.

In today's episode I'm joined by Bartow Florida, a member of the Flawedcast network and fellow musician. We swap origin stories, musical abilities and discuss the music of some bands we each enjoy.

To mark the 1 year anniversary of this podcast I decided to release my first EP titled "The Fraserham Lincoln Files" in this episode.

In today's episode I revisit the topic of compression where I've been working on the EP over the last week. I also talk about an interesting question I saw on MusicRadar about whether or not album artwork is dead. After that I play some songs by the band PUP formerly known as Topanga. They are a Canadian punk/pop band based out of Toronto with some catchy tunes and a little too much gang vocals.

Today's episode is an episode of firsts. Mike Hodge from the IHOP Podcast over on the Flawedcast network (http://flawedcast.net/IHOP) asked me about the EQ section of my Intro to Audacity - Part 2 video and I figured it was worth digging into. I explain how I decide what to EQ and step you thru how to make your own custom preset based on your voice that you can share with others. For my next first, I play some music by Stella Ella Ola. They're a Canadian surf/garage/pop/country jams band from Toronto Ontario and if you've listened to IHOP till the end you'll get to hear that song and a couple more from them.
